A single-center pilot study on the efficacy and safety of acetic acid–enhanced magnifying endoscopy with narrow-band imaging for diagnosis of colorectal epithelial neoplasms

On By GIEjournalIn GIE, InvestigationsLeave a comment

Post written by Takeshi Shimizu, MD, from the Department of Gastroenterology, Sendai City Medical Center, Sendai, Japan. The focus of our study was to identify the ideal acetic acid (AA) concentration for AA-enhanced narrow-band imaging (NBI) magnifying endoscopy (ANBI-ME) in diagnosing colorectal epithelial neoplasms. We then compared its pit pattern diagnostic ability and diagnostic concordance with crystal …
